"A remarkable achievement in the field of Arabic language pedagogy. This book offers a comprehensive, clear, and accessible introduction to the grammatical structures and rules of Levantine Arabic dialects spoken in Palestine, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon. It is an essential resource for anyone who wants to learn, teach, or research Levantine Arabic. It is suitable for learners of all levels, from beginners to advanced, and can be used as a self-study guide or as a textbook for classroom instruction. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning more about the fascinating and vibrant language and culture of the Levant."?Ghada Housen, assistant professor of instruction, Department of Middle Eastern Studies, The University of Texas at Austin
